HIGHLIGHTS — FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 2017

In terms of economic and financial performance for the first nine months of 2017:

• Consolidated revenues amounted to 14.7 billion euros, up 5.3% on the first nine months of 2016 (+2.7% in organic terms). The figure for the third quarter of 2017 was up 1.3% (+1.8% in organic terms). • EBITDA amounted to 6.2 billion euros, up 5.7% on the first nine months of 2016 (+3.8% in organic terms). The organic EBITDA margin stood at 42.3%, up 0.4 percentage points on the first nine months of 2016. EBITDA for the first nine months of 2017 was pulled lower by a total of 222 million euros in non-recurring expenses (155 million euros in the first nine months of 2016, at constant exchange rates), without which the organic change in EBITDA would have been +4.8%, with an EBITDA margin of 43.8%, up 0.8 percentage points compared to the first nine months of 2016. EBITDA for the third quarter of 2017 amounted to 2 billion euros, down 2.5% on the third quarter of 2016. In organic terms, and without the impact of the above-mentioned non-recurring expenses, the change would have been an increase of 0.7%. • Operating profit (EBIT) came to 2.8 billion euros, up 2.4% on the first nine months of 2016 (+1.5% in organic terms), pulled down by non-recurring net expenses of 252 million euros (144 million euros in the first nine months of 2016, at constant exchange rates), without which the organic change in EBIT would have been +5.1%. EBIT for the third quarter of 2017 amounted to around 1 billion euros, down 10.9% on the third quarter of 2016. In organic terms and without non-recurring net expenses, the decrease from the third quarter of 2016 would have been -2.1%. • The Profit for the period attributable to Owners of the Parent amounted to 1 billion euros (1.5 billion euros in the first nine months of 2016). On a like-for-like basis – i.e. without including the impact of non-recurring net expenses and, in the first nine months of 2016, the positive impact of the fair value measurement of the embedded option in the mandatory convertible bond converted into TIM shares at the end of 2016 – the profit for the first nine months of 2017 would have been almost 100 million euros higher than the figure for the same period of 2016. • Capital expenditures for the first nine months of 2017 amounted to 3,881 million euros (3,107 million euros in the first nine months of 2016) and included the outlay of 630 million euros for the renewal of the user rights for the 900 and 1800 MHz frequencies by the Domestic Business Unit. The Company has continued to implement selective capital expenditure by identifying projects with higher returns, targeted at innovation and transformation, while driving Ultra Broadband coverage, which has led to a 46% increase in the related capital expenditure. • Adjusted net financial debt amounted to 26,228 million euros at September 30, 2017, up 1,109 million euros on December 31, 2016 (25,119 million euros). The increase was essentially due to the payments of 630 million euros made by TIM S.p.A. for the renewal of the user rights for the mobile telephone frequencies and of 257 million euros made by the Brazil Business Unit to the consortium that is carrying out the cleanup of the 700 MHz spectrum, which the Business Unit purchased the user rights to in 2014, as well as the payment of dividends of 219 million euros. The positive performance of business operations ensured full coverage of the requirements resulting from the payment of the income tax expense.

CONSOLIDATED OPERATING PERFORMANCE

REVENUES

Revenues for the first nine months of 2017 amounted to 14,679 million euros, up 5.3% on the first nine months of 2016 (13,939 million euros). The increase of 740 million euros was mainly attributable to the Domestic Business Unit (276 million euros) and the Brazil Business Unit (467 million euros, included a positive exchange rate effect of 353 million euros). In terms of organic change, consolidated revenues rose by 2.7% (+386 million euros), and were calculated as follows:

EBITDA

EBITDA totaled 6,213 million euros (5,878 million euros in the first nine months of 2016), up 335 million euros (+5.7%) compared to the first nine months of 2016; the EBITDA margin was 42.3% (42.2% in the first nine months of 2016; +0.1 percentage points). Organic EBITDA was up 226 million euros (+3.8%) compared to the first nine months of 2016; the organic EBITDA margin was up 0.4 percentage points, from 41.9% for the first nine months of 2016 to 42.3% for the first nine months of 2017. The TIM Group recorded non-recurring operating expenses of 222 million euros for the first nine months of 2017 (155 million euros for the first nine months of 2016, at constant exchange rates). These expenses are connected to events and transactions that by their nature do not occur continuously in the normal course of operations, and have been shown because their amount is significant. They essentially

For the Brazilian real the average exchange rates used were 3.53378 in the first nine months of 2017 and 3.96106 in the first nine months of 2016. The effect of the change in exchange rates is calculated by applying the foreign currency translation rates used for the current period to the period under comparison. (2) The change in the scope of consolidation has been calculated by excluding the contribution of the companies that have exited from the comparison figure and adding in the estimated contribution of any companies entering the scope of consolidation.

consist of expenses from corporate restructuring and reorganization processes, disputes, and business transactions. Without these expenses, the organic change in EBITDA would have been +4.8%, with an EBITDA margin of 43.8%, up 0.8 percentage points on the first nine months of 2016. Further details are provided in the section “Significant non-recurring events and transactions” in this Interim Management Report at September 30, 2017 of the TIM Group.

• Employee benefits expenses (2,203 million euros; 2,303 million euros in the first nine months of 2016).

The main factors that drove the decrease of 100 million euros were: – a decrease of 16 million euros in the Italian component of ordinary employee expenses as a result of the reduction in the average salaried workforce (-1,537 people); in the first nine months of 2016, following the failure to achieve the conditions for the payment of the Results Bonus to employees, there was also a reversal of 66 million euros of the related accrual made in the 2015 financial statements; – the recognition of non-recurring expenses (provisions to Employee benefits and sundry expenses) totaling 19 million euros, broken down as follows: 8 million euros essentially related to the amounts for the aggregation of INPS positions, following the requests made by employees of the Parent and Telecom Italia Sparkle for the application of Article 4 of the “Fornero Law”; 3 million euros for the companies Telecontact and INWIT, which signed agreements in May and June 2017 for the application of those rules; 8 million euros for the settlement agreements with executives signed by the Parent. In the first nine months of 2016, provisions were made for non-recurring expenses following the application of Article 4 of the “Fornero Law” to executive and non-executive personnel and of the managerial restructuring plan, for a total of 114 million euros, (of which 76 million euros for the Parent and 38 million euros for Olivetti and TI Information Technology, later merged into TIM S.p.A.); – the increase for the component outside Italy of employee benefits expenses resulting from the balance of the exchange rate effect (essentially related to the Brazil Business Unit and which resulted in higher costs of around 30 million euros) and the lower cost, on one hand, related to the reduction in the average workforce by 1,744 average employees and, on the other hand, by the absence of the restructuring expenses that were present in the first nine months of 2016.

• Other income (316 million euros; 165 million euros in the first nine months of 2016).

Other income consisted of the impacts of contribution fees resulting from partnership agreements signed with leading technology suppliers. These agreements are aimed at developing the collaboration between the parties, in order to strengthen and stabilize the business and industrial relationship over time, to actively contribute to TIM's marketing plan for the development and use of several strategic services in Italy and in Brazil. This item also includes some insurance indemnities and adjustments of amounts payable to customers for unused prepaid traffic.

The overall increase in Other operating expenses included an exchange rate effect of 43 million euros relating to the Brazil Business Unit, without which this item would have shown an increase of 133 million euros. At September 30, 2017, this item included non-recurring expenses of 199 million euros (25 million euros at September 30, 2016) attributable to the Domestic Business Unit.

Depreciation and amortization

Details are as follows:

(millions of euros) 9 months to 9 months to Change 9/30/2017 9/30/2016

Amortization of intangible assets with a finite useful life 1,349 1,283 66 Depreciation of property, plant and equipment – owned and leased 2,009 1,833 176 Total 3,358 3,116 242

Impairment reversals (losses) on non-current assets

Impairment reversals (losses) on non-current assets amounted to 30 million euros in the first nine months of 2017 (8 million euros in the first nine months of 2016) and mainly related to the impairment loss on non-current intangible assets.

With regard to goodwill, in accordance with IAS 36 it is not subject to amortization, but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, whenever specific events or circumstances occur that may suggest impairment. At September 30, 2017, no external or internal events were identified for the Brazil Business Unit giving reason to believe a new impairment test was required. For the Domestic Business Unit, there was a negative difference between Market Capitalization and Equity in a general situation showing highly dynamic regulatory and competitive conditions; in any case the performance for the first nine months of the year is positive and in line with the plan forecasts. As a consequence the management has decided to confirm the goodwill allocated to the individual cash generating unit and to update the impairment tests at the time of the 2017 annual financial statements.

EBIT

EBIT totaled 2,834 million euros (2,768 million euros in the first nine months of 2016), up 66 million euros (+2.4%) compared to the first nine months of 2016; the EBIT margin was 19.3% (19.9% in the first nine months of 2016; -0.6 percentage points). Organic EBIT was up 41 million euros (+1.5%), with an organic EBIT margin of 19.3% (19.5% in the first nine months of 2016). EBIT for the first nine months of 2017 reflected the negative impact of non-recurring net expenses, included impairment loss of assets, totaling 252 million euros (144 million euros in the first nine months of 2016). Without these expenses, the organic change in EBIT would have been a positive 149 million euros (+5.1%), with an EBIT margin of 21.0%, up 0.5 percentage points on the first nine months of 2016. Organic EBIT is calculated as follows:

Income/(expenses) from investments

In the first nine months of 2017, this item amounted to an expense of 18 million euros (income of 6 million euros for the first nine months of 2016) and essentially included the allocation to the income statement of the Reserve for exchange differences on translating foreign operations for the investee company Tierra Argentea S.A., whose liquidation has now been completed.

Finance income (expenses), net

Finance income (expenses) showed an increase in net expenses of 616 million euros, from 510 million euros for the first nine months of 2016 to 1,126 million euros for the first nine months of 2017. The figure for the first nine months of 2017 reflected: • the absence of the positive impact, of 611 million euros, relating to the fair value measurement through profit and loss – performed separately to its liability component – of the embedded option included in the mandatory convertible bond issued by Telecom Italia Finance S.A. at the end of 2013, for 1.3 billion euros and converted in November 2016 (“Guaranteed Subordinated Mandatory Convertible Bonds due 2016 convertible into ordinary shares of TIM S.p.A.”); • the effects of the changes in several non-monetary items – of a valuation and accounting nature, linked in particular to derivative instruments; • lower finance expenses due to the reduction in the Group's debt exposure and in interest rates.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense amounted to 559 million euros, down 140 million euros on the first nine months of 2016 (699 million euros), essentially due to the lower taxable base of the Parent TIM S.p.A., which was offset by a provision of 37 million euros for the Telecom Italia Sparkle dispute.

PROFIT (LOSS) FOR THE PERIOD

This item was broken down as follows:

(millions of euros) 9 months to 9 months to 9/30/2017 9/30/2016

Profit (loss) for the period 1,130 1,610 Attributable to: Owners of the Parent: Profit (loss) from continuing operations 1,033 1,498 Profit (loss) from Discontinued operations/Non-current assets held for sale − (3) Profit (loss) for the period attributable to owners of the Parent 1,033 1,495 Non-controlling interests: Profit (loss) from continuing operations 97 65 Profit (loss) from Discontinued operations/Non-current assets held for sale − 50 Profit (loss) for the period attributable to non-controlling interests 97 115

Profit for the first nine months of 2017 attributable to the Owners of Parent amounted to 1,033 million euros (1,495 million euros in the first nine months of 2016) and was impacted by non-recurring net expenses of 233 million euros. On a comparable basis – i.e. without including the non-recurring items and, in the first nine months of 2016, the positive impact of the fair value measurement of the embedded option in the mandatory convertible bond – the Profit attributable to the Owners of the Parent for the first nine months of 2017 would have been almost 100 million euros higher than the figure for the same period of the previous year.

Interim Management Report at Financial and Operating Highlights of the Business Units of the TIM Group 17 September 30, 2017 Domestic Business Unit

Revenues

Revenues for the first nine months of 2017 came to 11,312 million euros and were up by 276 million euros (+2.5%) on the same period of 2016, continuing the trend of recovery that began in the previous year. Despite showing growth with respect to the same period of 2016 (+0.8%), there was a slowdown in the third quarter, due to the introduction of the new EU roaming rules in mid-June, which pulled down revenues, as well as non-recurring events in the Wholesale segment that positively affected the figures for the third quarter of 2016. Revenues from services amounted to 10,393 million euros, showing a growth of 47 million euros on the first nine months of 2016 (+0.5%), which also continued in the third quarter (+0.7%), despite the already mentioned impact of the introduction of the new EU roaming rules. This improvement was driven by the growth in the Mobile and Fixed Broadband customer base, as well as the increase in ARPU levels (thanks to the higher adoption of Fiber and LTE ultrabroadband connectivity services, and digital and ICT services), also accompanied by higher sales volumes for connected devices (Smartphones, SmartTVs, SmartHomes, Modems, etc.). In detail: • Fixed market service revenues totaled 7,428 million euros, still slightly down on the first nine months of 2016 (-43 million euros, -0.6%), but continuing the recovery and stabilization seen in the last two quarters of 2017 (third quarter -0.1%, second quarter +0.8%, and first quarter -2.4%). The continued growth in revenues from innovative services for data connectivity (+199 million euros, +14.5%), driven by the growth in ultrabroadband customers - which increased by 889 thousand in the period, bringing the number of retail accesses to over 1.7 million and the total number of accesses to over 2.5 million - was offset by the fall in revenues from traditional voice services (-212 million euros as a result of the reduction in traditional accesses), and the consequent reduction in the regulated prices for some wholesale services (-47 million euros). It is also noted the increase of the revenues from ICT services (+40 million euros, +9.1%); • Mobile market service revenues totaled 3,430 million euros, up 70 million euros on the same period of the previous year (+2.1%). This increase was driven by the strong competitive performance, which resulted in recovery of market share and growth in the customer base without affecting ARPU levels. Despite the already mentioned impact of the new EU roaming rules, the third quarter of 2017 continued the trend of growth with a historical series of stable positive performance (+1.6% in the third quarter, +2.5% in the second quarter, and +2.2% in the first quarter).

Revenues from product sales, including the change in work in progress, amounted to 919 million euros in the first nine months of 2017 (+229 million euros compared to the same period of 2016) and reflected the steady increase in sales of smartphones and other connected devices (smart TVs, Smart Home products, modems, set-top boxes, etc.).

EBITDA

EBITDA for the Domestic Business Unit totaled 5,055 million euros for the first nine months of 2017, up 60 million euros on the same period of 2016 (+1.2%), with an EBITDA margin of 44.7% (-0.6 percentage points compared to the same period of previous year). The first nine months of 2017 reflected the negative impact of non-recurring expenses totaling 221 million euros (139 million euros for the same period of the previous year), relating to costs resulting from corporate restructuring and reorganization processes, disputes and business transactions. Without these expenses, the organic change in EBITDA would have been +2.8%, with an EBITDA margin of 46.6%, up 0.1 percentage points on the same period of 2016. The EBITDA performance, in addition to the improvement in sales earnings and the revenue performance, also reflected the positive impacts of the cost cutting program, which started to have an effect from the second quarter of 2016, with resources focused on marketing to support sales initiatives and customer management, with a consequent reduction in industrial and general operating costs.

EBIT of the Domestic Business Unit for the first nine months of 2017 came to 2,507 million euros (2,575 million euros in the same period of 2016), down 68 million euros (-2.6%), with an EBIT margin of 22.2% (23.3% in the first half of 2016). The first nine months of 2017 reflected the negative impact of non-recurring expenses totaling 251 million euros (139 million euros for the same period of the previous year), relating to costs resulting from corporate restructuring and reorganization processes, disputes and business transactions, as well as the impairment loss on non-current intangible assets. Without these expenses, the organic change in EBIT would have been +1.6%, with an EBIT margin of 24.4%. The EBIT performance reflected the increase in depreciation and amortization (+109 million euros), partially offset by the improvement in EBITDA described above.

In detail: • Consumer: revenues for the Consumer segment for the first nine months of 2017 amounted to a total of 5,713 million euros, an increase of 309 million euros compared to the same period of 2016 (+5.7%). This performance continued the trend of recovery that had already begun in the previous year. In particular: – revenues from the Mobile business amounted to 2,836 million euros and showed growth compared to the first nine months of 2016 (+126 million euros, +4.7%), with revenues from services in particular up 80 million euros (+3.3% on the same period of 2016). This continued the improvement seen in the previous quarters (+6.0% in the third quarter, +4.1% in the second quarter and +3.9% in the first quarter) due to the progressive stabilization and improvement of market share and the steady growth in Internet mobile and digital services, which sustained the ARPU levels; – revenues for the Fixed-line segment amounted to 2,851 million euros, an increase of 191 million euros on the first nine months of 2016 (+7.2%), continuing the recovery already seen at the end of the previous year (+6.8% in the third quarter, +11.2% in the second quarter and +3.5% in the first quarter) thanks to the containment of line losses, the growth in the Broadband and Ultra broadband customer base (which offset the loss of voice only accesses), the increase in ARPU levels, and the strong performance of the sales of connected devices. • Business: revenues for the Business segment amounted to 3,398 million euros, up 102 million euros on the same period of 2016 (+3.1%). In detail: – revenues from the Mobile business posted performance essentially in line with the first nine months of 2016 (-0.4%); specifically, the continuing decline in traditional mobile services (-9.4% compared to the same period of 2016, mainly related to the voice component) driven by the shift of customers (both private individuals and government agencies) towards formulas with lower ARPU, was fully offset by the positive performance of new digital services (+11.4% on the same period of the previous year); – revenues for the Fixed-line segment increased by 103 million euros (+4.2% on the first nine months of 2016) thanks to the steady increase in revenues from ICT services (+9.1%), which more than offset the reduction in prices and revenues from traditional services and the effects of the technological shift towards VoIP solutions.

Interim Management Report at Financial and Operating Highlights of the Business Units of the TIM Group 22 September 30, 2017 Domestic Business Unit

• Wholesale: revenues for the Wholesale segment in the first nine months of 2017 came to 1,258 million euros, down on the same period of 2016 (-112 million euros, -8.2%). This performance was due to the absence of the boosts received from the sale of infrastructure (cable ducts and dark fiber/Backbone) with other operators, which had a positive impact on the figures for the third quarter 2016, and to the end of the roaming agreement with H3G. The reduction in regulated prices, totaling - 47 million euros, was more than offset by growth, particularly in the NGN segment (+55 million euros).

Revenues

Revenues for the first nine months of 2017 amounted to 11,977 million reais and were up 403 million reais (+3.5%) compared to the same period of the previous year. Revenues from services totaled 11,399 million reais, an increase of 521 million reais compared to 10,878 million reais for the first nine months of 2016 (+4.8%). These results confirm the continued improvement in the trend, with positive growth in the third quarter of 2017 both in total revenues (+4.7% compared to +3.2% for the second quarter 2017, +2.5% for the first quarter 2017, and -1.7% for the fourth quarter 2016) and in revenues from services (+5.9% compared to +5.0% for the second quarter of 2017, +3.5% for the first quarter of 2017, and -0.7% for the fourth quarter of 2016).

Mobile Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) for the first nine months of 2017 was 19.6 reais, up on the figure of 17.6 reais for the first nine months of 2016 (+11.4%), due to the general repositioning towards the postpaid segment and new commercial initiatives aimed at increasing data usage and the average spend per customer. The total number of lines at September 30, 2017 was 59,390 thousand, representing a decrease of 4,028 thousand on December 31, 2016 (63,418 thousand), with a market share of 24.6% in September 2017 (26.0% at December 31, 2016). This reduction was entirely attributable to the prepaid segment (-5,918 thousand) and was only partially offset by the growth in the postpaid segment (+1,890 thousand), also as a result of the consolidation underway in the market for second SIM cards. Postpaid customers represented 28.2% of the customer base at September 30, 2017, up 4.7 percentage points on December 2016 (23.5%).

Interim Management Report at Financial and Operating Highlights of the Business Units of the TIM Group 24 September 30, 2017 Brazil Business Unit

Revenues from product sales came to 578 million reais (696 million reais in the first nine months of 2016; -17.0%). The reduction reflects the change in the commercial policy, which is now more focused on value rather than sales volume growth. The main goals of this strategy are to increase the purchasing of new handsets giving TIM customers access to broadband services on 3G/4G networks and to support the new loyalty offerings for higher-value postpaid customers.

EBITDA

EBITDA amounted to 4,136 million reais, up 570 million reais on the first nine months of 2016 (+16.0%). The growth in EBITDA was attributable to both the positive performance of revenues and the benefits from the projects to enhance the efficiency of the operating expenses structure, launched in the second half of 2016, with an improvement in the third quarter 2017 (+19.1% compared to +15.8% for the second quarter 2017, +12.6% for the first quarter 2017, and +5.8% for the fourth quarter 2016). The EBITDA margin stood at 34.5%, 3.7 percentage points higher than in the first nine months of 2016. You are also reminded that the employee benefits expenses for the first nine months of 2016 included non-recurring expenses for termination benefits of 56 million reais. Even without the impact of these non-recurring expenses, EBITDA for the first nine months of 2017 showed an increase (+14.2%) compared to the first nine months of 2016, continuing the steady improvement seen in the third quarter 2017 (+17.0% compared to +15.7% for the second quarter 2017, +9.4% for the first quarter 2017, and +2.1% for the fourth quarter 2016).

EBIT

EBIT amounted to 1,202 million reais, up +370 million reais (+44.5%) on the first nine months of 2016 (832 million reais). This result benefited from the greater contribution from the EBITDA (+570 million reais), which was offset by higher depreciation (+169 million reais) related to the development of industrial infrastructure, and a lower impact of net gains on disposals of assets (-31 million reais), mainly attributable to the telecommunication towers transaction. In this regard, we note that the last partial sale of telecommunication towers to American Tower do Brasil took place in the second quarter of 2017. This transaction resulted in proceeds and an income effect of an immaterial amount.

Capital expenditures on an accrual basis

The breakdown of capital expenditures by operating segment is as follows:

(millions of euros) 9 months to 9/30/2017 9 months to 9/30/2016 Change % of total % of total

Domestic 3,177 81.9 2,398 77.2 779 Brazil 704 18.1 709 22.8 (5) Other Operations − − − − − Adjustments and eliminations − − − − − Consolidated Total 3,881 100.0 3,107 100.0 774 % of Revenues 26.4 22.3 4.1 pp

Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2017 totaled 3,881 million euros, up 774 million euros on the first nine months of 2016. In particular: • The Domestic Business Unit posted capital expenditures of 3,177 million euros, an increase of 779 million euros compared to the first nine months of 2016. This increase was attributable to the innovation expenditure for infrastructure development (+386 million euros on the first nine months of 2016) and, in particular, it reflected the increase in capital expenditure for the development of next-generation networks and services, and the renewal of the user rights for the GSM frequencies (630 million euros). The decrease in other types of expenditure continued thanks to the selectivity and attention given to capital allocation choices based on strategic priorities and profit optimization. • The Brazil Business Unit recorded capital expenditures of 704 million euros in the first nine months of 2017, down 5 million euros on the first nine months of 2016. Without the positive impact of the exchange rate effect, which amounted to 85 million euros, the change was -90 million euros and mainly reflected the lower expenditure for renewals of TLC licenses (-42 million euros) and developments in Information Technology projects (-39 million euros), following the strong growth recorded in 2016 due to the launch of new commercial offers and the introduction of the new billing system. Capital expenditure in network infrastructure in the first nine months of 2017 amounted to 471 million euros (-11 million euros at constant exchange rates compared to the first nine months of 2016), and was mainly aimed at developing the 4G mobile broadband network, reaching 2,401 towns (+551 compared to the first half of 2017), with an urban population coverage rate of 85.8% (+6.0 percentage points compared to the first half of 2017).

Change in net operating working capital

The change in net operating working capital for the first nine months of 2017 was a decrease of 1,427 million euros (decrease of 830 million euros in the first nine months of 2016). In particular: • the change in inventories generated a negative impact of 64 million euros; the management of trade receivables had a positive impact of 9 million euros, also thanks to the performance of the Brazilian Real, which resulted in a positive exchange differential of 76 million euros, without which trade receivables would have shown a decrease of 68 million euros, connected to the increase in revenues; • the change in trade payables (-998 million euros) included a negative impact of around 87 million euros due to the performance of the Brazilian Real; it also included the payment of around 257 million euros made by the Brazil Business Unit to the consortium that is carrying out the cleanup of the 700 MHz spectrum, which the Business Unit purchased the user rights to in 2014. The level of trade payables was also influenced by the seasonal peak in payments for bills payable;

Sale of investments and other disposals flow

This item had a positive balance of 26 million euros for the first nine months of 2017 and reflected the sale of non-current assets during the normal operating cycle (13 million euros) and the collection of a deferred portion of the price of a non-controlling interest sold in previous years (13 million euros). In the first nine months of 2016, it was a positive figure of 737 million euros and essentially related to the sale of the Sofora – Telecom Argentina group that took place on March 8, 2016.

Financial investments flow

In the first nine months of 2017, this item amounted to 1 million euros. In the first nine months of 2016 this item amounted to 11 million euros and mainly included around 6 million euros for the payment made by INWIT S.p.A., net of the cash acquired, for the acquisition of the investments in Revi Immobili S.r.l., Gestione Immobili S.r.l. and Gestione Due S.r.l., and around 3 million euros for the subscription of the capital increase in the company Northgate held as a non-controlling interest.

Change in leasing contracts

In the first nine months of 2017, this item amounted to 45 million euros. In the first nine months of 2016, the change was equal to 178 million and related to TIM S.p.A.. Further details are provided in the Note “Tangible assets (owned and under finance leases)” of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at September 30, 2017 of the TIM Group.

Finance expenses, income taxes and other net non-operating requirements flow

The item amounted to 1,884 million euros and mainly included the payment, during the first nine months of 2017, of net borrowing costs and income taxes, as well as the change in non-operating receivables and payables.

The financial risk management policies of the TIM Group are aimed at minimizing market risks, fully hedging exchange rate risk, and optimizing interest rate exposure through appropriate diversification of the portfolio, which is also achieved by using carefully selected derivative financial instruments. Such instruments, it should be stressed, are not used for speculative purposes and all have an underlying, which is hedged. In addition, to determine its exposure to interest rates, the Group sets an optimum composition for the fixed-rate and variable-rate debt structure and uses derivative financial instruments to achieve that composition. Taking into account the Group's operating activities, the optimum mix of medium/long-term non-current financial liabilities has been established, on the basis of the nominal amount, at a range of 65% - 75% for the fixed-rate component and 25% - 35% for the variable-rate component. In managing market risks, the Group has adopted Guidelines for the "Management and control of financial risk" and mainly uses IRS and CCIRS derivative financial instruments. To provide a better representation of the true performance of Net Financial Debt, from 2009, in addition to the usual indicator (renamed "Net financial debt carrying amount"), a measure called "Adjusted net

Interim Management Report Consolidated Financial Position and Cash Flows Performance 30 at September 30, 2017

financial debt" has also been shown, which neutralizes the effects caused by the volatility of financial markets. Given that some components of the fair value measurement of derivatives (contracts for setting the exchange and interest rate for contractual flows) and derivatives embedded in other financial instruments do not result in actual monetary settlement, the "Adjusted net financial debt" excludes these purely accounting and non-monetary effects (including the effects resulting from the introduction of IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement from January 1, 2013) from the measurement of derivatives and related financial assets/liabilities.

Sales of receivables to factoring companies The sales of trade receivables to factoring companies finalized in the first nine months of 2017 resulted in a positive effect on net financial debt at September 30, 2017 of 1,139 million euros (1,091 million euros at December 31, 2016).

Gross financial debt Bonds Bonds at September 30, 2017 were recognized for 21,942 million euros (22,964 million euros at December 31, 2016). Their nominal repayment amount was 21,475 million euros, down 942 million euros compared to December 31, 2016 (22,417 million euros). Changes in bonds over the first nine months of 2017 are shown below:

Maturities of financial liabilities and average cost of debt The average maturity of non-current financial liabilities (including the current portion of medium/long- term financial liabilities due within 12 months) is 7.65 years. The average cost of the Group's debt, considered as the cost for the year calculated on an annual basis and resulting from the ratio of debt-related expenses to average exposure, is about 4.9%. For details of the maturities of financial liabilities in terms of expected nominal repayment amounts, as contractually agreed, see the Notes "Financial liabilities (non-current and current)" in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at September 30, 2017 of the TIM Group.

Current financial assets and liquidity margin The TIM Group's available liquidity margin amounted to 10,562 million euros at September 30, 2017, corresponding to the sum of "Cash and cash equivalents" and "Current securities other than investments", totaling 3,562 million euros (5,483 million euros at December 31, 2016), and the committed credit lines, mentioned above, of which a total of 7,000 million euros has not been drawn down. This margin is sufficient to cover Group financial liabilities due at least for the next 24 months. In particular:

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to 2,519 million euros (3,964 million euros at December 31, 2016). The different technical forms used for the investment of liquidity as of September 30, 2017 can be analyzed as follows: – Maturities: investments have a maximum maturity of three months; – Counterparty risk: investments by the European companies are made with leading banking, financial and industrial institutions with high credit quality. Investments by the companies in South America are made with leading local counterparties; – Country risk: deposits have been made mainly in major European financial markets. Current securities other than investments amounted to 1,043 million euros (1,519 million euros at December 31, 2016): These forms of investment represent alternatives to the investment of liquidity with the aim of improving returns. They include 479 million euros of Italian treasury bonds purchased respectively by TIM S.p.A. (257 million euros) and Telecom Italia Finance S.A. (222 million euros) and 453 million euros of bonds purchased by Telecom Italia Finance S.A. with different maturities, all with an active market and consequently readily convertible into cash. The purchases of the above government bonds, which, pursuant to Consob Communication no. DEM/11070007 of August 5, 2011, represent investments in “Sovereign debt securities”, have been made in accordance with the Guidelines for the "Management and control of financial risk" adopted by the TIM Group since August 2012.

EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2017

For details of subsequent events, see the Note “Events Subsequent to September 30, 2017” in the TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK FOR THE YEAR 2017

As envisaged in the 2017–2019 Plan, TIM will continue the process of profound transformation of the Company. This process consists of firm financial discipline in support of development, aimed at creating more room for investments for new networks and platforms (Fiber and mobile UltraBroadband and Cloud-based services) and eliminating less strategic cash costs, in addition to maximizing return on investment. The objective is to ensure structural growth in revenue and EBITDA and consolidate TIM's position as the market leader in terms of technology, network quality and service excellence in the Fixed- line and Mobile segments. The key elements of this approach are innovation, convergence, exclusive content and closeness to the Customer. In the Domestic Fixed segment, TIM expects to cut the reduction in the number of clients – with zero line losses by 2018 – through the faster spread and subsequent adoption of fiber optic networks. The commercial strategy will also play a crucial role, with a focus on retaining and increasing the customer base through measures including the offering of Smart Home devices and appliances connected to the home network and charged directly in phone bills. Within the Domestic Mobile segment, where the competitive landscape is becoming increasingly polarized and segmented, TIM will leverage the reach of its 4G network (expected population coverage of over 99% in 2019) and the diffusion of convergent services and quality content, particularly in the high-end market where data usage continues to increase. Kena, the second no-frills brand (launched in April), will also allow the Company to compete in the more price-sensitive segments. Several major shifts have also occurred, including the changes in the market environment, with the initiation of the Anti-Trust Authority's proceedings regarding the ultrabroadband and fiber optic network development projects, and the revision of the business strategies for the content component. These risk factors could have an impact on aspects such as the ultrabroadband development plans and the evolution model adopted in the multimedia market. Lastly, operations will be characterized by greater selectivity and priority in investment choices and efficiency recovery measures through structural cost optimization programs. As a result of the transformation and streamlining of the organization and processes, combined with commercial expansion and expected growth in revenue – also in light of the performance outlook for the domestic market, the impacts from the new tariff model for roaming services, and several non-recurring business dynamics in the second half of 2016 (resulting in a not fully like-for-like comparison with the second half of 2017) – management is able to confirm the guidance in organic terms announced for the full year 2017 and for the period of the Plan (organic growth in EBITDA (low single digit) and cash flow generation necessary to reduce the adjusted net financial debt to reported EBITDA ratio, which is expected to be below 2.7x in 2018). In Brazil, the Plan provides for the continued turnaround of Tim Brasil through its re-positioning based on network and product quality, enabling the company to maintain its leadership in the prepaid segment and successfully compete in the postpaid segment. The Cost Containment Plan initiated in 2016 has also been continued and strengthened and will enable the achievement of solid profit and cash flow generation. More specifically, further impetus will be given to the construction of the UBB Mobile infrastructure – upon completion of the Plan, the 4G network will reach 95% of the population with coverage of about 3,600 cities – and the development of convergent offers, also through agreements with major premium content providers.

Interim Management Report Business outlook 43 at September 30, 2017 for 2017

MAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Risk governance is a strategic tool for value creation. The TIM Group has adopted an Enterprise Risk Management Model based on the methodology of the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (ERM CoSO Report), which enables the identification and management of risk in a uniform manner across the Group companies, highlighting potential synergies among the actors involved in the assessment of the Internal Control and Risk Management System. The ERM process is designed to identify potential events that may affect the business, to manage risk within acceptable limits and to provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of corporate objectives. The business outlook for 2017 could be affected in the second half of the year by risks and uncertainties caused by a multitude of factors, the majority of which are beyond the Group's control. In addition, there have been several major shifts, including the change in the market environment, with the start of proceedings by the Anti-Trust Authority on the ultrabroadband and fiber optic network development projects, and the possible revision of the business strategies for the content component. These risk factors may have repercussions – which are currently unforeseeable – in terms of the strategic choices adopted by the company and could have an impact, for example, on the ultrabroadband development plans and on the evolution model adopted in the multimedia market. The main risks affecting the business activities of the TIM Group, which may impact, even significantly, the ability to achieve the objectives of the Group are presented below.

STRATEGIC RISKS

Risks related to macroeconomic factors

The TIM Group's economic and financial situation is subject to the influence of numerous macroeconomic factors such as economic growth, political stability, consumer confidence, and changes in interest rates and exchange rates in the markets in which it operates. After years of crisis, the global economic recovery seems to have gained momentum. In Italy, the economic recovery also appears to be strengthening. The year 2016 ended with growth of around 1% (a low figure when compared to the average of the EMU countries) and the forecast for 2017 is for higher growth (+1.5% according to the latest estimates issued by the Italian government). Consumption is starting to pick up again, after a slowdown in the second half of 2016, despite the erosion of purchasing power due to the return to inflation. Confidence has significantly improved among consumers and businesses. The Italian macroeconomic scenario is essentially favorable, but the country's position is still frail. In the labor market, unemployment is still high, despite the fall in the second quarter of 2017, with consequent possible repercussions on income available for consumption. On the Brazilian market, the expected results may be significantly affected by the macroeconomic and political situation. After eight quarters of GDP decline, marking the deepest and most profound crisis in its history, Brazil returned to growth in the first quarter of 2017 (+1%) and the figures for the second quarter have continued this positive trend. 2017 should close with a growth rate of 0.7%. The inflation rate continues to fall (3.2% forecast for 2017 from 9.4% in 2016) and is in line with the central bank’s targets (+4.5% +/- 1.5 percentage points). Household consumption has started to pick up again, benefiting from increased purchasing power due to lower inflation and the initial improvements in the labor market. However, these positive figures are also accompanied by continued political instability and a difficult employment situation (with just under 14 million unemployed and an unemployment rate of around 13% in the second quarter of 2017).

Risks related to competition

The telecommunications market is characterized by strong competition that may reduce market share in the geographical areas where the TIM Group is engaged as well as erode prices and margins. Competition is focused, on one hand, on innovative products and services and, on the other hand, on

Interim Management Report Main risks and uncertainties 44 at September 30, 2017

the price of traditional services. In the area of infrastructure competition, the growth of alternative operators could represent a threat for TIM, particularly in the years of the Plan after 2017 and also beyond the Plan period. In the mobile market, Iliad S.A. is about to launch a new mobile operator in Italy with the aim of acquiring 10-15% of the market, as per its own announcements, by adopting the strategies it has already used for the French market. For its part, TIM has launched a new operator with its own independent systems and features. In addition, Enel Open Fiber and Infratel have announced their plans for the development of an ultrabroadband telecommunications network as an alternative to the TIM network, respectively in the major Italian cities and the "market failure" areas. In the Brazilian market, the competitive risk consists of both a deterioration of the business model tied to traditional services, which have not been replaced by innovative services, and the rationalization of consumption by customers as a result of a contraction of their purchasing power, also through the shift towards new flat deals. In this scenario, the Tim Brasil group may be further impacted in the short term to a greater extent than its main competitors, due to the higher proportion of customers with prepaid services, which are more affected by the current macroeconomic situation, and by a slowdown in their replacement with postpaid customers.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

Operational risks inherent in our business relate to possible inadequacies in internal processes, external factors, frauds, employee errors, errors in properly documenting transactions, loss of critical or commercially sensitive data and failures in systems and/or network platforms.

Risks related to business continuity

The TIM Group's success depends heavily on the ability to ensure continuous and uninterrupted delivery of the products and services we provide through the availability of processes and the relating supporting assets. In particular, the Network Infrastructure and the Information Systems are sensitive to various internal and external threats: power outage, floods, storms, human errors, system failures, hardware and software failures, software bugs, cyber attacks, earthquakes, facility failures, strikes, fraud, vandalism, terrorism, etc.. Each of these events could lead to an interruption in the supply of services/products and potentially affect our business both directly and indirectly: reduction in revenues and/or increased costs for recovery and for penalties and fines, decrease in customer satisfaction, and negative impact on reputation.

Risks related to the development of fixed and mobile networks

To maintain and expand our customer portfolio in each of the markets in which we operate, it is necessary to maintain, update and improve existing networks in a timely manner. A reliable and high quality network is necessary to maintain the customer base and minimize the terminations to protect the Company's revenues from erosion. The maintenance and improvement of existing installations depend on our ability to: • upgrade the capabilities of the networks to provide customers with services that are closer to their needs; in this regard, the TIM Group may participate in tenders for broadcasting frequencies; • increase the geographical coverage of innovative services; • upgrade the structure of the systems and the networks to adapt it to new technologies; • sustaining the necessary level of capital expenditure in the long term. Risks of internal/external fraud

The TIM Group has adopted an organizational model to prevent fraud. However, the implementation of this model cannot ensure the total mitigation of the risk. Dishonest activities and illegal acts committed

Interim Management Report Main risks and uncertainties 45 at September 30, 2017

by people inside and outside the organization could adversely affect the Company's operating results, financial position and image.

Risks related to disputes and litigation

The TIM Group has to deal with disputes and litigation with tax authorities, regulators, competition authorities, other telecommunications operators and other entities. The possible impacts of such proceedings are generally uncertain. In the event of settlement unfavorable to the Group, these issues may, individually or as whole, have an adverse effect, which may even be significant, on its operating results, financial position and cash flows.

FINANCIAL RISKS

The TIM Group may be exposed to financial risks, such as risks arising from fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates, credit risk, liquidity risk and risks related to the performance of the equity markets in general, and – more specifically – risks related to the performance of the share price of the TIM Group companies. These risks may adversely impact the earnings and the financial structure of the Group. Accordingly, to manage those risks, the TIM Group has established guidelines, at central level, which must be followed for operational management, identification of the most suitable financial instruments to meet set goals, and monitoring the results achieved. In particular, in order to mitigate the liquidity risk, the TIM Group aims to maintain an "adequate level of financial flexibility", in terms of cash and syndicated committed credit lines, enabling it to cover refinancing requirements at least for the next 12 - 18 months. On June 23, 2016, a referendum was held in the United Kingdom, commonly referred to as “Brexit”, in which voters approved the UK’s exit from the European Union. The potential impact of Brexit will depend in part on the outcome of the negotiations on tariffs, trade, regulations and other matters, which started in the second half of June 2017. The result of the referendum had an adverse effect on the global markets and also produced a sharp decline in the pound against the dollar and the euro. Brexit and the possible changes during the exit negotiations could create further instability in the global financial markets and uncertainty about the laws and regulations of the European Union that the United Kingdom may decide to replace with national laws and regulations. The potential effects of Brexit could adversely affect our financial conditions, our business and the related earnings and cash flows.

REGULATORY AND COMPLIANCE RISKS

Regulatory risks

The telecommunications industry is highly regulated. In this context, new decisions by the Communications Authority (AGCom) may lead to changes in the regulatory framework that may affect the expected results of the Group. More specifically, the main elements that introduce uncertainty are: • lack of predictability in start-up timing and consequent new process decisions; • decisions with retroactive effect (for example, price revisions for previous years as a result of judgments issued by the Administrative Courts); • decisions that can influence the technological choices made and to be made, with potential impact on the timing of return on infrastructure investment. Implementation has been completed of the New Equivalence Model (NEM), launched by TIM in 2015, aimed at further improving the effectiveness of guarantees for equal treatment between own business divisions and competitors that buy wholesale services. The NEM and the related implementation roadmap were approved by the Board of Directors of TIM on November 5, 2015. The Italian Antitrust Authority (AGCM) and the AGCom positively evaluated the effectiveness of the NEM and decided,

Interim Management Report Main risks and uncertainties 46 at September 30, 2017

respectively, to close the non-compliance proceedings A428C, acknowledging that TIM has complied with the earlier A428 decision, and to discontinue the ongoing penalty proceedings.

Compliance risks

The TIM Group may be exposed to risks of non-compliance due to non-observance/breach of internal (self-regulation, such as, for example, bylaws, code of ethics) and external rules (laws and regulations), with consequent judicial or administrative penalties, financial losses or reputational damage. The TIM Group aims to ensure that processes, and, therefore, the procedures and systems governing them, and corporate conduct comply with legal requirements. The risk is associated with potential time lags in making the processes compliant with regulatory changes or whenever non-conformities are identified.

MAIN CHANGES IN THE REGULATORY FRAMEWORK

DOMESTIC

Wholesale fixed-line markets

Wholesale access services

At the end of the proceeding initiated through resolution 623/15/CONS, in December 2016, AGCM and AGCom approved TIM’s New Equivalence Model (NEM) aimed at structurally improving the effectiveness of the equal treatment in the supply of wholesale access services provided to its competitors and its commercial divisions. AGCom also established that the NEM must be implemented by December 2017 and set up a technical working group to monitor the process. In the same resolution 623/15/CONS, AGCom asked TIM to submit two alternative proposals (unbundling and outsourcing models) regarding greater autonomy for the other licensed operators in the provision of delivery and assurance for the local loop unbundling (LLU) and sub-loop unbundling (SLU). On August 23, 2017, in its Resolution 321/17/CONS, AGCom approved an unbundling model that provides greater transparency and flexibility in the operational processes for the above-mentioned provisioning and assurance, giving the other licensed operators the possibility of choosing between TIM and external companies, selected by TIM, while still fully meeting the requirements of integrity, functional operation and security of the network.

Infratel Tenders for the subsidizing of the Ultra Broadband networks

In March 2017, Infratel Italia awarded the company Open Fiber (OF) the five lots of the tender for the construction and operation of networks enabling the offering of Ultra Broadband services (from 30 to 100 Mbit/s) in the so-called "White Areas” (in which the private operators had not envisaged the independent construction of Ultra Broadband infrastructure in the next three years) of the municipalities of six Italian regions (Abruzzo, Molise, Emilia Romagna, Lombardy, Tuscany and Veneto). On March 20, 2017, the Lazio Regional Administrative Court rejected the appeal filed by TIM concerning the tender and, consequently, TIM lodged an appeal on June 20, 2017 with the Consiglio di Stato. In July 2017, OF was awarded the six lots of the second Infratel tender, for the white areas of 10 regions (Piedmont, Valle d' Aosta, Liguria, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Marche, Umbria, Lazio, Campania, Basilicata and Sicily) and the autonomous province of Trento. TIM has also appealed against the result of this second tender call. On October 2, 2017, Infratel started a public consultation on the capital expenditure programs of the private operators in the white areas of the regions of Calabria, Apulia and Sardinia, with a view to publishing the third and final direct tender call for the ultrabroadband coverage in the white areas of these regions.

Retail fixed-line markets

28-day invoicing

On September 26, 2017, AGCom initiated penalty proceedings against TIM, Wind Tre, Vodafone and Fastweb. According to AGCom, the operators did not comply with the provisions of Resolution 121/17/CONS of March 2017, which set the minimum period for the subscription and billing cycle for fixed or convergent retail telephony offers at 30 days (fixed-line and mobile services). From 2016, these operators had in fact reduced the subscription and billing period for fixed-line offers from the previous term of 1 month to 28 days (TIM had introduced the amendment from April 2017 for consumer customers and from May 2017 for business customers). In May 2017, TIM appealed against Resolution 121/17/CONS at the Lazio Regional Administrative Court. The industry-sector association ASSTEL has also submitted an appeal against the measure by the

Interim Management Report at Main changes in the regulatory framework 48 September 30, 2017

Authority. These proceedings are still underway and the ruling is expected between March and April 2018. In October 2017, the Government announced a legislative measure that will impose a 30-day billing obligation on the operators. The Government has not yet established the timing of the approval and the types of services (e.g. fixed-line only, fixed-line consumer only, inclusion of mobile services, etc.) covered by this measure, which may also extend AGCom's supervisory and disciplinary powers.

Universal Service

Through Resolution 46/17/CONS of January 26, 2017, AGCom introduced new measures regarding the subsidized financial conditions for access to fixed and mobile services for particular categories of disabled customers. The provisions of the measure, which apply to the deaf and the totally and partially blind, broaden the current subsidies, both in terms of discounted services (e.g. flat voice and data offers) and categories of disabled people covered (e.g. the partially blind). In February 2017, TIM submitted an appeal to the Lazio Regional Administrative Court against Resolution 456/16/CONS of October 2016, through which AGCom rejected TIM's proposal for a price adjustment on the “Voice” offering (the basic voice telephony offering), and introduced a strict procedure for future changes of Universal Service prices, by providing, for example, a minimum time interval of a year between two successive tariff changes and the possibility to only change prices with reference to: (i) increase in wholesale costs; (ii) offsetting inflation; (iii) socio-economic conditions. The first hearing has been set for November 22, 2017. Through Resolution 163/17/CONS of April 18, 2017, AGCom imposed a fine of 232,000 euros on TIM for the failure to achieve 4 quality objectives of 2015. For information on the pending disputes relating to the remuneration of the net costs of the Universal Service incurred by TIM in the years 1999-2003, excluding 2002, see the Note “Contingent liabilities, other information, commitments and guarantees” of the Consolidated financial statements of the TIM Group at December 31, 2016. As a result of the ruling no. 4616/2015 of October 2, 2015, in which the Consiglio di Stato canceled resolution 1/08/CIR solely with respect to the application of the new methodological criteria for the calculation of the net cost of the universal service (USO) for the period 2004-2007, AGCom initiated the renewal proceedings for those annual periods and appointed an independent consultant to revise the calculation of the USO, through resolution no. 145/17/CONS for the years 2006 and 2007 and through resolution no. 207/17/CONS for the years 2004 and 2005.

Wholesale mobile network markets

International roaming

On June 15, 2017, the provision of European Regulation 2015/2120 of November 25, 2015 ("Telecom Single Market - TSM Regulation") entered into force, which requires for the application of the national tariff for intra-EU voice, SMS and roaming data traffic. On April 25, 2017, the European Parliament and the Council adopted a regulation establishing new wholesale caps for roaming traffic valid from June 15, 2017 to June 30, 2022 (Voice: 3.2 euro cents per minute; SMS 1 euro cents per SMS, data: 7.7 euro/GByte in 2017; 6 euro/GByte in 2018; 4.5 euro/GByte in 2019; 3.5 euro/GByte in 2020; 3 euro/GByte in 2021; and 2.5 euro/GByte in 2022).

AGCom contribution fee

On March 31, 2017, TIM paid an amount of 19.3 million euros, with reservation, for the 2017 AGCom contribution fee. The value was calculated by applying the rate of 0.0014 to the revenues recorded in the Company's 2015 Financial Statements. The guidelines for the calculation of the contribution fee, set out in the AGCom Resolutions 463/16/CONS and 62/17/CONS, have not changed with respect to those established for the calculation of the 2016 contribution fee.

Antitrust

For information on the pending legal disputes, relating to the AGCM proceedings – A428 and I761 – see the Note “Contingent liabilities, other information” of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the TIM Group at September 30, 2017.

Case A500B

In April 2017, the AGCM extended to Telecom Italia Sparkle the case A500B, opened against TIM and regarding the possible improper conduct in the market consisting in bulk SMS messaging services. AGCM is required to make a final decision by December 31, 2017.

Case “I799”

In February 2017, AGCM initiated investigation proceedings for possible violation of Article 101 TFEU (ban on competition-restricting agreements) against TIM S.p.A. and Fastweb S.p.A., following the signing of an agreement aimed at establishing a joint cooperative enterprise Flash Fiber S.r.l.. In agreement with Fastweb, TIM has submitted several amendments to the agreements signed to the AGCM, in the form of proposed commitments, aimed at settling the proceedings without accepting the violation and, therefore, without any financial penalty. The end of the proceedings has been set at December 31, 2017.

Case “A514”

On June 28, 2017, AGCM initiated proceedings against TIM for possible breaches of Article 102 TFEU following complaints made by Infratel, Enel, Open Fiber, Vodafone and Wind-Tre. The deadline for the conclusion of the proceedings has been set at October 31, 2018. For more details see the description provided in the Note “Contingent liabilities, other information” of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at September 30, 2017 of the TIM Group.

Disputes with AGCom

On August 9, 2017, AGCom provided notification of Resolution 88/17/CIR in which it had ruled on the dispute initiated on August 2, 2016 by TIM against Enel Distribuzione (“ED”) regarding the conditions of access to ED’s infrastructure. AGCom recognized the validity of most of the objections raised by TIM and ordered the amendment of the “Technical and Financial Rules for access to the electricity infrastructure of ED”.

700 MHz and Analog TV switch off

In September 2014, TIM won the tender for the award of the 700MHz (4G/LTE) band frequencies, for a price of 1.7 billion reais, and with additional commitments of 1.2 billion reais (in four annual installments, adjusted for inflation) as a contribution to the consortium established by the tender (“EAD”) for all the operators (TIM, Algar, Claro and Vivo) awarded the contract for managing the freeing up of the 700MHz band through the switch off of analog TV, the redistribution of channels and the reduction of interference. To that end, the first payment (370 million reais) was made in April 2015 and the subsequent two payments (for a total of 860 million reais) were both made in January 2017, whereas the final installment (142 million reais) will be paid in January 2018. Since 2016, over 2,500 towns have freed up the 700 Mhz LTE spectrum. In November, Goiânia will become the last of the 21 capitals to make it available for activation during the current year. In addition, the plan envisages the switch off by the end of November 2017 in the cities of Rio de Janeiro and Belo Horizonte and in January 2018 in the cities of Porto Alegre, Florianópolis and Curitiba.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTION AND COORDINATION

With effect from May 3, 2017, the Board of Directors of TIM amended the Procedure for the management of transactions with related parties, initially extending its scope on a voluntary basis and then adding the treatment of Vivendi as its Controlling Entity, from June 1, 2017. In addition, on September 13, 2017, Consob communicated that “it considered that Vivendi exercises de facto control over TIM pursuant to Article 2359 of the Italian Civil Code and Article 93 of the Consolidated Law on Finance, and pursuant to the related party regulations”. Although it expressed its intention to challenge the decision, the Board of Directors ensured full compliance with the rules resulting from this classification, also amending the aforementioned Procedure as a consequence (on September 28, 2017); the latest version is available for consultation on the website www.telecomitalia.com, “About Us” section – “Governance System”.

In the meantime, on July 27, 2017, the Board of Directors also acknowledged the start of direction and coordination by Vivendi. On August 4, 2017, in response to a request from Consob, the Company specified that this acknowledgment had taken place, following the statements made to the Board of Directors by the Executive Chairman, also in his capacity as Chief Executive Officer of the Vivendi group, in the light of two specific circumstances: • on the one hand, the strengthening of the Company's management team with the arrival in TIM of a senior executive from the Vivendi group, aimed, among other things, at achieving greater coordination between the industrial and commercial activities of the various companies, as part of the current strategic plan; and • on the other hand, the JV between TIM and Canal+, as another equally indicative sign of the desire to establish a form of coordination between the two groups in the multimedia sector, again within the context of the current strategic plan.

The information on related party transactions and transactions with the Controlling Entity Vivendi S.A. is presented in the financial statements and in the Note "Related party transactions and Direction and Coordination" in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at September 30, 2017 of the TIM Group.

Joint Venture with Canal+

On October 20, 2017, the Board of Directors of TIM examined and approved the binding term sheet by majority vote for the creation of a joint venture with Canal+. This transaction constitutes a related party transaction, because Canal+ International S.A.S. is a subsidiary of Vivendi S.A., already classed by Consob as the de facto controlling entity of TIM: this is a minor transaction in accordance with the parameters established by the relevant Consob Regulation. As such, it was submitted to the Control and Risk Committee for its recommendation, which voted in favor by majority, with motivated vote against by two board members. The Committee voted unanimously in favor, however, with regard to considering future transactions of the joint venture as transactions of TIM, for the application of the company procedure for performing transactions with related parties.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES

In this Interim Management Report at September 30, 2017 of the TIM Group, in addition to the conventional financial performance measures required by IFRS, a series of alternative performance measures are presented for the purposes of providing a better understanding of results from operations and the financial position. Such measures, which are also presented in other periodical financial reports (annual and interim) should, however, not be construed as a substitute for those required by IFRS.

The alternative performance measures used are described below: • EBITDA: this financial measure is used by TIM as the financial target in internal presentations (business plans) and in external presentations (to analysts and investors). It represents a useful unit of measurement for the evaluation of the operating performance of the Group (as a whole and at the Business Unit level), in addition to EBIT. These measures are calculated as follows:

Profit (loss) before tax from continuing operations + Finance expenses - Finance income +/- Other expenses (income) from investments +/- Share of profits (losses) of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method EBIT - Operating profit (loss) +/- Impairment losses (reversals) on non-current assets +/- Losses (gains) on disposals of non-current assets + Depreciation and amortization EBITDA - Operating profit (loss) before depreciation and amortization, Capital gains (losses) and Impairment reversals (losses) on non-current assets • Organic change in Revenues, EBITDA and EBIT: these measures express changes (amount and/or percentage) in revenues, EBITDA and EBIT, excluding, where applicable, the effects of the change in the scope of consolidation and exchange differences. TIM believes that the presentation of the organic change in revenues, EBITDA and EBIT allows for a more complete and effective understanding of the operating performance of the Group (as a whole and at the Business Unit level). This method of presenting information is also used in presentations to analysts and investors. This Interim Report provides a reconciliation between the "accounting or reported" figure and the "organic" figure. • EBITDA margin and EBIT margin: TIM believes that these margins represent useful indicators of the Group’s ability, as a whole and at Business Unit level, to generate profits from its revenues. In fact, EBITDA margin and EBIT margin measure the operating performance of an entity by analyzing the percentage of revenues that are converted, respectively, into EBITDA and EBIT. Such indicators are used by TIM in internal presentations (business plans) and in external presentations (to analysts and investors) in order to illustrate the results from operations also through the comparison of the operating results of the reporting period with those of the previous periods. • Net Financial Debt: TIM believes that Net Financial Debt represents an accurate indicator of the Group's ability to meet its financial obligations. It is represented by Gross Financial Debt less Cash and Cash Equivalents and other Financial Assets. This Interim Management Report includes tables showing the amounts taken from the statement of financial position and used to calculate the Net Financial Debt of the Group. To better represent the real performance of Net Financial Debt, in addition to the usual indicator (called "Net financial debt carrying amount"), "Adjusted net financial debt" is also shown, which excludes effects that are purely accounting and non-monetary in nature deriving from the fair value measurement of derivatives and related financial assets and liabilities.

Interim Management Report Alternative Performance Measures 59 at September 30, 2017

Net financial debt is calculated as follows:

+ Non-current financial liabilities + Current financial liabilities + Financial liabilities directly associated with Discontinued operations/Non-current assets held for sale A) Gross financial debt + Non-current financial assets + Current financial assets + Financial assets relating to Discontinued operations/Non-current assets held for sale B) Financial assets C=(A - B) Net financial debt carrying amount D) Reversal of fair value measurement of derivatives and related financial assets/liabilities E=(C + D) Adjusted net financial debt

NOTE 1 FORM, CONTENT AND OTHER GENERAL INFORMATION

FORM AND CONTENT Telecom Italia S.p.A. (the “Parent”), also known in short as “TIM S.p.A.”, and its subsidiaries form the “TIM Group” or the “Group”. TIM is a joint-stock company (S.p.A.) organized under the laws of the Republic of Italy. The registered offices of the Parent, TIM, are located in Milan, Italy at Via Gaetano Negri 1. The duration of TIM S.p.A., as stated in the company's bylaws, extends until December 31, 2100. On July 27, 2017, the Board of Directors of TIM S.p.A. acknowledged the start of the direction and coordination by Vivendi S.A.. On September 13, 2017, Consob communicated that “it considered that Vivendi exercises de facto control over TIM pursuant to Article 2359 of the Italian Civil Code and pursuant to Article 93 of the Consolidated Law on Finance, as well as the related party rules”. The TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at September 30, 2017 have therefore been prepared in accordance with the relevant provisions, indicating Vivendi S.A. as the “Controlling Entity” and TIM S.p.A. as the company subject to Direction and Coordination. The TIM Group operates mainly in Europe, the Mediterranean Basin and South America. The Group is engaged principally in the communications sector and, particularly, the fixed and mobile national and international telecommunications sector. The TIM Group condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2017 have been prepared on a going concern basis (for further details see the Note "Accounting policies") and in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and endorsed by the European Union (designated as "IFRS"), as well as the laws and regulations in force in Italy. The TIM Group condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2017 have been prepared in compliance with IAS 34 (Interim Reports) and, as permitted by this standard, do not include all the information required in the annual consolidated financial statements; accordingly, these financial statements should be read together with the 2016 TIM Group consolidated financial statements. For purposes of comparison, the consolidated statements of financial position at December 31, 2016, the separate consolidated income statements and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the third quarter of 2016 and the first nine months of 2016 have been presented, as well as the consolidated statements of cash flows and the consolidated statements of changes in equity for the first nine months of 2016. The TIM Group condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2017 are expressed in euro (rounded to the nearest million unless otherwise indicated). Publication of the TIM Group condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2017 was approved by resolution of the Board of Directors' meeting held on November 10, 2017.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT FORMATS

The financial statement formats adopted are consistent with those indicated in IAS 1. In particular:

 the consolidated statements of financial position have been prepared by classifying assets and liabilities according to the "current and non-current" criterion; • the separate consolidated income statements have been prepared by classifying operating expenses by nature of expense as this form of presentation is considered more appropriate and representative of the specific business of the Group, conforms to internal reporting and is in line with the TIM Group's industrial sector. In addition to EBIT or Operating profit (loss), the separate consolidated income statements include the alternative performance measure of EBITDA or Operating profit (loss) before depreciation and amortization, Capital gains (losses) and Impairment reversals (losses) on non-current assets.

TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 1 at September 30, 2017 Form, content and other general information 70

In particular, besides EBIT, EBITDA is used by TIM as the financial target in internal presentations (business plans) and in external presentations (to analysts and investors). It represents a useful unit of measurement for the evaluation of the operating performance of the Group (as a whole and at the Business Unit level). EBIT and EBITDA are calculated as follows:

• the consolidated statements of comprehensive income include the profit or loss for the period as shown in the separate consolidated income statements and all other non-owner changes in equity; • the Consolidated statements of cash flows have been prepared by presenting cash flows from operating activities according to the "indirect method", as permitted by IAS 7 (Statement of Cash Flows).

SEGMENT REPORTING An operating segment is a component of an entity: • that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity); • whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources (for the TIM Group, the Board of Directors of the Parent) to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and • for which discrete financial information is available.

In particular, the operating segments of the TIM Group are organized according to geographic location (Domestic and Brazil) for the telecommunications business. The Sofora - Telecom Argentina group, which was sold on March 8, 2016, has been recognized under Discontinued operations. The term "operating segment" is considered synonymous with "Business Unit".

The operating segments of the TIM Group are as follows:

 Domestic: includes operations in Italy for voice and data services on fixed and mobile networks for end customers (retail) and other operators (wholesale), the operations of the Telecom Italia Sparkle group (International wholesale), which, at international level (Europe, the Mediterranean and South America), develops fiber optic networks for wholesale customers, the operations of Olivetti (products and services for Information Technology), as well as INWIT S.p.A. (a company operating in the electronic communications infrastructure sector, and in particular the infrastructure for hosting radio transmission equipment for mobile telephone networks, both for TIM and other operators) and the units supporting the Domestic sector. See the section “Financial and Operating Highlights of the Business Units of the TIM Group – Domestic Business Unit” of the Interim Management Report for more details.  Brazil: includes mobile (TIM Celular) and fixed (TIM Celular and Tim S.A., formerly Intelig) telecommunications operations in Brazil;  Other Operations: include finance companies and other minor companies not strictly related to the core business of the TIM Group.

NOTE 2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

GOING CONCERN

The condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2017 have been prepared on a going concern basis as there is the reasonable expectation that TIM will continue its operational activities in the foreseeable future (and in any event with a time horizon of at least twelve months). In particular, the following factors have been taken into consideration:

• the main risks and uncertainties (that are for the most part of an external nature) to which the Group and the various activities of the TIM Group are exposed: – changes in the general macroeconomic situation in the Italian, European and Brazilian markets, as well as the volatility of financial markets in the Eurozone also as a result of the “Brexit” referendum in the United Kingdom; – variations in business conditions, also related to competition; – changes to laws and regulations (price and rate variations); – outcomes of legal disputes and proceedings with regulatory authorities, competitors and other parties; – financial risks (interest rate and/or exchange rate trends, changes in the Group's credit rating by rating agencies); • the mix between equity and debt capital considered optimal as well as the policy for the remuneration of equity, described in the 2016 consolidated financial statements in the paragraph devoted to the "Share capital information" under the Note "Equity"; • the policy for financial risk management (market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk) as described in the Note "Financial risk management" in the annual consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2016. Based on these factors, the Management believes that, at the present time, there are no elements of uncertainty regarding the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accounting policies and consolidation principles adopted in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2017 are the same as those adopted in the annual consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2016, to which reference can be made, except for the changes required because of the nature of interim financial reporting. Furthermore, in the condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2017, income tax expense for the period of the individual consolidated companies is calculated according to the best possible estimate based on available information and on a reasonable forecast of performance up to the end of the tax period. Conventionally, the income tax liabilities (current and deferred) on the profit for the interim period of the individual consolidated companies are recorded net of advances and tax receivables (excluding receivables for which refunds have been requested) as well as deferred tax assets, under "Deferred tax liabilities"; if the balance between deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities is an asset it is conventionally recognized in "Deferred tax assets".

USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2017 and related disclosure requires management to make estimates and assumptions based also on subjective judgments, past experience and hypotheses considered reasonable and realistic in relation to the information known at the time of the estimate. Such estimates have an effect on the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the amount of revenues and costs during the period. Actual results could differ, even significantly, from those estimates owing to possible changes in the factors considered in the determination of such estimates. Estimates are reviewed periodically.

TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 2 at September 30, 2017 Accounting policies 72

With regard to the most important accounting estimates, please refer to those illustrated in the annual consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2016.

NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ENDORSED BY THE EU AND IN FORCE FROM THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2017

New Standards and Interpretations endorsed by the EU Amendments to IAS 12 (Income taxes) – Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealized Losses Amendments to IAS 7 (Cash flow statement - Disclosure initiative)

NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BY IASB BUT NOT YET APPLICABLE At the date of preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the following new standards and interpretations, which have not yet entered into force, had been issued by the IASB:

Mandatory application starting from

New Standards and Interpretations endorsed by the EU IFRS 15 (Revenues from contracts with customers) 1/1/2018 Clarifications to IFRS 15 (Revenue from contracts with customers) 1/1/2018 IFRS 9 (Financial Instruments) 1/1/2018 IFRS 16 (Leases) 1/1/2019 New Standards and Interpretations not yet endorsed by the EU Amendments to IFRS 2 (Classification and measurement of share-based payments) 1/1/2018 Improvements to the IFRS (2014-2016 cycle) – Amendments to IFRS 12 and IAS 28 1/1/2017 for IFRS 12 1/1/2018 for IAS 28 IFRIC 22 (Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration) 1/1/2018 Amendments to IAS 40 (Investment property) 1/1/2018 IFRIC 23 – Uncertainty over income tax treatments 1/1/2019 Amendments to IFRS 9: Prepayment features with negative compensation 1/1/2019 Amendments to IAS 28: Long-term interests in Investments in associates and joint ventures 1/1/2019 IFRS 17: Insurance contracts 1/1/2021

The potential impacts on the consolidated financial statements from application of these standards and interpretations are currently being assessed. With regard to the adoption of IFRS 15, IFRS 16 and IFRS 9, specific projects were initiated in 2016 at Group level whose activities continued during the first nine months of 2017. Accordingly, a reliable estimate of the quantitative effects resulting from the adoption of those standards will only be possible when each project has been completed. Further details of the specific projects are provided in the Note “Accounting policies” of the annual consolidated financial statements of the TIM Group at December 31, 2016. In addition, with regard to IFRS 9, one of the areas affected by the new standard is the adoption of the expected credit loss model for the impairment of financial assets and of trade receivables, in particular, instead of the incurred loss model envisaged by IAS 39.

(millions of euros) 12/31/2016 Reclassifications Increase Decrease Impairments Exchange 9/30/2017 differences

Domestic 28,489 28,489 Core Domestic 28,077 28,077 International Wholesale 412 412 Brazil 1,123 (92) 1,031 Other Operations − − Total 29,612 − − − − (92) 29,520

In accordance with IAS 36, goodwill is not subject to amortization, but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, whenever specific events or circumstances occur that may indicate an impairment. At September 30, 2017, no external or internal events were identified for the Brazil Business Unit giving reason to believe a new impairment test was required. For the Domestic Business Unit, there was a negative difference between Market Capitalization and Equity in a general situation showing highly dynamic regulatory and competitive conditions; in any case the performance for the first nine months of the year is positive and in line with the plan forecasts. As a consequence the management has decided to confirm the goodwill allocated to the individual cash generating unit and to update the impairment tests at the time of the 2017 annual financial statements.

NOTE 5 INTANGIBLE ASSETS WITH A FINITE USEFUL LIFE

Intangible assets with a finite useful life increased by 172 million euros compared to December 31, 2016. The breakdown and movements are as follows:

(millions of euros) 12/31/2016 Additions Depreciation Impairment Disposals Exchange Capitalized Other 9/30/2017 and (losses) / differences borrowing changes amortization reversals costs

Industrial patents and intellectual property rights 2,458 439 (958) (90) 332 2,181 Concessions, licenses, trademarks and similar rights 2,854 20 (295) (54) 37 2,562 Other intangible assets 109 116 (96) (3) 1 127 Work in progress and advance payments 1,530 1,060 (30) (93) 62 (276) 2,253 Total 6,951 1,635 (1,349) (30) − (240) 62 94 7,123

Additions in the first nine months of 2017 also included 194 million euros of internally generated assets (218 million euros in the first nine months of 2016).

Industrial patents and intellectual property rights at September 30, 2017 essentially consisted of software applications purchased outright and user license rights of unlimited duration, relating to TIM S.p.A. (1,140 million euros) and the Brazil Business Unit (1,020 million euros).

Concessions, licenses, trademarks and similar rights at September 30, 2017 mainly consisted of: • the remaining cost of telephone licenses and similar rights (1,756 million euros for TIM S.p.A., 282 million euros for the Brazil Business Unit); • Indefeasible Rights of Use - IRU (305 million euros) mainly relating to companies of the Telecom Italia Sparkle group - International Wholesale (203 million euros) and the Parent (102 million euros); TV frequencies of the company Persidera in the Core Domestic segment (113 million euros). • Other intangible assets at September 30, 2017 essentially consisted of capitalized subscriber acquisition costs (SACs) of 108 million euros (73 million euros for the Parent and 35 million euros for the Brazil Business Unit), mainly related to commissions for the sales network, for a number of commercial deals that lock in customers for a set period of time.

Work in progress and advance payments increased by 723 million euros. This item includes the advance payment by TIM S.p.A. of 630 million euros for the extension of the user rights for the 900 and 1800 MHz (GSM) band, which will take effect from July 1, 2018 to December 31, 2029. You are reminded that this item includes the user rights for the 700 MHz frequencies, acquired in 2014 by the Tim Brasil group for a total of 2.9 billion reais (equal to around 1 billion euros). In the first nine months of 2017, part of the user rights for the 700 Mhz frequencies (33 million euros) became operational and were consequently reclassified to the item “Concessions, licenses, trademarks and similar rights”. Since the assets require a period of more than 12 months to be ready for use, the directly attributable borrowing costs of 62 million euros were again capitalized in the first nine months of 2017. This amount derives from the application of an annual interest rate for Real of 8.63%; capitalized borrowing costs have been recorded as a direct reduction of the income statement item "Finance expenses - Interest expenses to banks".

Hedging derivatives relating to items classified as current liabilities of a financial nature totaled 78 million euros (69 million euros at December 31, 2016). Non-hedging derivatives classified as non-current financial liabilities totaled 8 million euros (13 million euros at December 31, 2016). Non-hedging derivatives classified as non-current financial liabilities totaled 5 million euros (11 million euros at December 31, 2016). These also include the measurement of derivatives which, although put into place for hedging purposes, do not possess the formal requisites to be considered as such under IFRS.

“COVENANTS” AND “NEGATIVE PLEDGES” EXISTING AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 The bonds issued by the TIM Group do not contain financial covenants (e.g. ratios such as Debt/EBITDA, EBITDA/Interest, etc.) or clauses that result in the automatic early redemption of the bonds in relation to events other than the insolvency of the TIM Group(1). Furthermore, the repayment of the bonds and the payment of interest are not covered by specific guarantees nor are there commitments provided relative to the assumption of future guarantees, except for the full and unconditional guarantees provided by TIM S.p.A. for the bonds issued by Telecom Italia Finance S.A. and Telecom Italia Capital S.A.. Since these bonds have been placed principally with institutional investors in major world capital markets (Euromarket and the U.S.A.), the terms which regulate the bonds are in line with market practice for similar transactions effected on these same markets. Consequently, for example, there are commitments not to use the company's assets as collateral for loans ("negative pledges").

With regard to the loans taken out by TIM S.p.A. with the European Investment Bank ("EIB"), at September 30, 2017, the nominal amount of outstanding loans amounted to 1,950 million euros, of which 800 million euros at direct risk and 1,150 million euros secured.

EIB loans not secured by bank guarantees for a nominal amount equal to 800 million euros need to apply the following covenants: • in the event the company becomes the target of a merger, demerger or contribution of a business segment outside the Group, or sells, disposes or transfers assets or business segments (except in certain cases, expressly provided for), it shall immediately inform the EIB which shall have the right to ask for guarantees to be provided or changes to be made to the loan contract, or, only for certain loan contracts, the EIB shall have the option to demand the immediate repayment of the loan

(1) A change of control event can result in the early repayment of the convertible bond of TIM S.p.A., the EIB loans and the bilateral credit line with Mediobanca, as further detailed below.

TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 8 at September 30, 2017 Financial liabilities (non-current and current) 85

(should the merger, demerger or contribution of a business segment outside the Group compromise the Project execution or cause a prejudice to EIB in its capacity as creditor); • with the 500 million euros loan, signed on December 14, 2015, TIM undertook to ensure that, for the entire duration of the loan, the total financial debt of the Group companies other than TIM S.p.A. – except for the cases when that debt is fully and irrevocably secured by TIM S.p.A. – is lower than 35% (thirty-five percent) of the Group's total financial debt.

EIB loans secured by banks or entities approved by the EIB for a total nominal amount of 1,150 million euros, and direct risk loans, respectively for 300 million euros, signed on July 30, 2014 and 500 million euros, signed on December 14, 2015, must apply the following covenants: • "Inclusion clause", covering a total of 1,650 million euros of loans, under which, in the event TIM commits to uphold financial covenants in other loan contracts (and even more restrictive clauses for 2014 and 2015 direct risk loans, including, for instance, cross default clauses and commitments restricting the sale of goods) that are not present in or are stricter than those granted to the EIB, the EIB will have the right – if, in its reasonable opinion, it considers that such changes may have a negative impact on TIM's financial capacity – to request the provision of guarantees or the modification of the loan contract in order to establish an equivalent provision in favor of the EIB; • "Network Event", covering a total of 1,350 million euros of loans, under which, in the event of the disposal of the entire fixed network or of a substantial part of it (in any case more than half in quantitative terms) to third parties or in the event of disposal of the controlling interest in the company in which the network or a substantial part of it has previously been transferred, TIM must immediately inform the EIB, which shall have the option of requiring the establishment of guarantees or amendment of the loan contract or an alternative solution.

The loan agreements of TIM S.p.A. do not contain financial covenants (e.g. ratios such as Debt/EBITDA, EBITDA/Interests, etc.) which would oblige the Company to repay the outstanding loan if the covenants are not observed. The loan agreements contain the usual other types of covenants, including the commitment not to use the Company’s assets as collateral for loans (negative pledges), the commitment not to change the business purpose or sell the assets of the Company unless specific conditions exist (e.g. the sale takes place at fair market value). Covenants with basically the same content are also found in the export credit loan agreement.

In the Loan Agreements and the Bonds, TIM is required to provide notification of change of control. Identification of the occurrence of a change of control and the applicable consequences – including, at the discretion of the investors, the establishment of guarantees or the early repayment of the amount paid in cash or as shares and the cancellation of the commitment in the absence of agreements to the contrary – are specifically covered in the individual agreements. In addition, the outstanding loans generally contain a commitment by TIM, whose breach is an Event of Default, not to implement mergers, demergers or transfer of business, involving entities outside the Group. Such Event of Default may entail, upon request of the Lender, the early redemption of the drawn amounts and/or the annulment of the undrawn commitment amounts.

In the documentation of the loans granted to certain companies of the Tim Brasil group, the companies must generally respect certain financial ratios (e.g. capitalization ratios, ratios for servicing debt and debt ratios) as well as the usual other covenants, under pain of a request for the early repayment of the loan.

Lastly, at September 30, 2017, no covenant, negative pledge clause or other clause relating to the above-described debt position, has in any way been breached or violated.

NOTE 11 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES, OTHER INFORMATION

A description is provided below of the most significant judicial, arbitration and tax disputes in which TIM Group companies are involved as of September 30, 2017, as well as those that came to an end during the period. The TIM Group has posted liabilities totaling 579 million euros for those disputes described below where the risk of losing the case has been considered probable.

A) SIGNIFICANT DISPUTES AND PENDING LEGAL ACTIONS

For the following disputes and pending legal actions no significant facts have emerged with respect to what was published in the 2016 Annual Report: • international tax and regulatory disputes; • irregularities concerning transactions for the leasing/rental of assets.

Telecom Italia Sparkle – Relations with I-Globe, Planetarium, Acumen, Accrue Telemedia and Diadem: investigation by the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Rome

In September 2017 the Rome Appeal Court rejected the appeal lodged by the Prosecutor's office, confirming the acquittal of the three former managers already ordered in the first instance by the Court of Rome. The Rome Public Prosecutor's Office had challenged the judgement of the Court of Rome of October 2013 with which the three former managers of Telecom Italia Sparkle were fully acquitted of the charges of transnational conspiracy for the purpose of tax evasion and false declarations through the use of invoices or other documents for non-existent transactions ("carousel fraud"); only Telecom Italia Sparkle is still under investigation for the administrative offence pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/2001, with the predicate offence of conspiracy and translational money laundering. Following the outcome of the judgement of the first instance, the Company obtained from the Judicial Authority the release and return of all the sums issued to guarantee any obligations deriving from the application of Legislative Decree 231/2001; the sum of 1,549,000 euros, which corresponds to the maximum fine applicable for the administrative offence, still remains under seizure. As for risks of a fiscal nature, it should be noted that in February 2014 the Revenues Agency (Lazio Regional Office) served three formal notifications of fines for the years 2005, 2006 and 2007, based on the assumption that the telephone traffic in the “carousel fraud” did not exist. The amount of the fines – 25% of the “crime related costs” unduly deducted – totalled 280 million euros. In this respect the Company had filed an appeal to the Provincial Tax Commission of Rome in April 2014. The Commission rejected the appeal with a decision filed in May 2016. The Company lodged an appeal with the Regional Tax Commission of Lazio in October 2016, opposing the judgement in the first instance, requesting a suspension of the enforcement of this first instance judgement subject to presentation of an appropriate guarantee. In December 2016, the Regional Tax Commission granted this suspension, fixing the date for a hearing on the merits in April 2017. On 5 April 2017 the appeal was discussed before the Regional Tax Commission of Lazio. On 26 April 2017 the second tier ruling was filed (2310/2017 - sec. 11) which rejected the Company’s appeal. During the same month of April an application was filed for the scrapping of the case – opened by Equitalia following the unfavourable judgement of the Rome Provincial Tax Commission – concerning the application for payment of 2/3rds of the sanction imposed earlier by the Revenues Agency; this reduced the overall risk to 93 million euros and the dispute continued but limited to that amount. Thereafter, following the introduction of regulations on the facilitated settlement of pending tax litigation, the company arranged to settle the entire case with the payment, made on 2 October 2017, of an

TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 11 at September 30, 2017 Contingent liabilities, other information 91

amount of around 37 million euros, corresponding to 40% of the sanction still under dispute. As a result, the dispute was settled.

Administrative offence charge pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/2011 for the so-called TIM Security Affair.

In December 2008 TIM received notification of the application for its committal for trial for the administrative offence specified in articles 21 and 25, subsections 2 and 4, of legislative decree no. 231/2001 in relation to the affairs that involved several former employees of the Security function and former collaborators of the Company charged – among other things – with offences involving corruption of public officials, with the object of acquiring information from confidential files. In May 2010 TIM definitively ceased to be a defendant in the criminal trial, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing having approved the motion for settlement of the proceedings (plea bargaining) presented by the Company. In the hearing before Section One of the Milan Court of Assizes, TIM acted in the dual role of civil party and civilly liable party. In fact, on the one hand it was admitted as civil party against all the defendants for all charges, and on the other it was also cited as the party with civil liability pursuant to article 2049 of the Italian Civil Code for the actions of the defendants in relation to 32 civil parties. Telecom Italia Latam and Telecom Italia Audit and Compliance Services (now incorporated into TIM) also participated in the hearing as civil parties, having filed appearances since the Preliminary Hearing and brought charges against the defendants for hacking. After the lengthy evidence hearings, 22 civil parties filed claims for compensation, also against TIM as civilly liable party, for over 60 million euros (over 42 million euros of which requested by a single civil party). The Company itself, as civil party, also summarised its conclusions against the defendants, requesting that they be found liable for all the damages suffered as a result of the facts of the case. In February 2013, Section 1 of the Milan Court of Assizes issued the first instance judgement, sentencing the defendants to terms of imprisonment of between 7 years and 6 months and one year. The Court also recognised that there had been non-pecuniary damage to some of the civil parties as a consequence of the alleged facts, and sentenced the defendants, jointly and severally with civilly liable party TIM, to compensate said damages, totalling 270,000 euros (in part jointly and severally with Pirelli) plus legal fees; at the same time the Court also sentenced the defendants to pay compensation for pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages incurred by the Company, granting it a provisional sum of 10 million euros. The judgement also recognised the existence of non- pecuniary damage to the companies Telecom Italia Latam and Telecom Italia Audit & Compliance Services, sentencing the defendants to pay compensation for damages on an equitable basis of 20,000 euros for each company. In November 2013 the grounds for the judgement in the first instance were published (which, for its part, the Company decided not to contest). At the end of the appeal, which was brought by the convicted defendants, the judgement in the first instance was partly reversed. The appeal judge took note of the fact that the time-limit had expired on the majority of the charges, and made an order not to proceed against the defendants who had been convicted in the lower court, with the exception of two, who were found guilty of the offence of revealing information which was subject to a prohibition on disclosure. As for the civil judgements, the Court revoked those made by the judge of first instance and ruled in favour of three ministries, AGCM and the Revenues Agency. The Court also decided to revoke the provisional sum of 10 million euros awarded to the Company as civil party at the end of the proceedings in the court of first instance, making a generic ruling that the defendants should pay compensatory civil damages. Finally, the appeal judge also rejected all the demands for compensation advanced in the appeals by certain civil parties for a total of about 60 million euros, in respect of which the Company has the role of party liable for damages. At the end of the appeal, therefore, the civil rulings settled in the first instance were confirmed which TIM, as the party liable for damages, had already paid to the damaged requesting parties. The three defendants brought an appeal to the Court of Cassation against the judgement of the second instance issued by the Milan Appeal Court of Assizes, for which, as of today, the preliminary hearing is still to be scheduled.

It should be noted that for some of the disputes described below, it was not possible to make a reliable estimate of the size and/or times of possible payments, if any, on the basis of the information available at the closing date of the present document, particularly in light of the complexity of the proceedings, the progress made, and the elements of uncertainty of a technical- trial nature. Moreover, in those cases in which disclosure of information on a dispute could seriously jeopardise the position of TIM or its subsidiaries, only the general nature of the dispute is described.

Of the disputes with the aforementioned characteristics, no significant facts have emerged for those listed below with respect to the information published in the 2016 Annual Report:

• Italian Competition Authority Case I-761; • WIND (I-761); • VODAFONE (A428); • VODAFONE; • COLT TECHNOLOGY SERVICES; • KPNQ West Italia S.p.A.; • EUTELIA and VOICEPLUS; • Vodafone Dispute - Universal Service; • Olivetti – Asbestos exposure; • POSTE; • Elinet S.p.A. Bankruptcy; • Dispute relative to "Adjustments on license fees" for the years 1994-1998; • Brazil - Docas/JVCO Arbitration; • Brazil – CAM JVCO Arbitration.

Antitrust Case A428

At the conclusion of case A428, in May 2013, Italian Competition Authority AGCM imposed two administrative sanctions of 88,182,000 euros and 15,612,000 euros on TIM for abuse of its dominant position. The Company allegedly (i) hindered or delayed activation of access services requested by OLOs through unjustified and spurious refusals; (ii) offered its access services to final customers at economic and technical conditions that allegedly could not be matched by competitors purchasing wholesale access services from TIM itself, only in those geographic areas of the Country where disaggregated access services to the local network are available, and hence where other operators can compete more effectively with the Company. TIM appealed against the decision before the Regional Administrative Court (TAR) for Lazio, applying for payment of the fine to be suspended. In particular, it alleged: infringement of its rights to defend itself in the proceedings, the circumstance that the organisational choices challenged by AGCM and allegedly at the base of the abuse of the OLO provisioning processes had been the subject of specific rulings made by the industry regulator (AGCom), the circumstance that the comparative examination of the internal/external provisioning processes had in fact shown better results for the OLOs than for the TIM retail department (hence the lack of any form of inequality of treatment and/or opportunistic behaviour by TIM), and (regarding the second abuse) the fact that the conduct was structurally unsuitable to reduce the margins of the OLOs. In May 2014, the judgement of the Lazio TAR was published, rejecting TIM's appeal and confirming the fines imposed in the original order challenged. In September 2014 the Company appealed against this decision. In May 2015, with the judgement no. 2497/15, the Council of State found the decision of the court of first instance did not present the deficiencies alleged by TIM and confirmed the AGCM ruling. The company had already proceeded to pay the fines and the accrued interest. In a decision notified in July 2015, AGCM started proceedings for non-compliance against TIM, to ascertain if the Company had respected the notice to comply requiring it to refrain from undertaking behaviours analogous to those that were the object of the breach ascertained with the concluding decision in case A428 dated May 2013.

TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 11 at September 30, 2017 Contingent liabilities, other information 93

On 13 January 2017 TIM was notified of the conclusive assessment of the Italian Competition Authority (AGCM), acknowledging that TIM has fully complied with the judgement in proceedings A428 and that therefore the conditions do not exist for the imposition of any sanctions for non-compliance. AGCM recognises, furthermore, that TIM's behaviour subsequently to the 2013 proceedings has been directed towards continuous improvement of its performance in the supply of wholesale access services concerning not only the services which were the subject of the investigation, but also the new super-fast broadband access services. In assessing compliance, AGCM recognised the positive impact of the implementation, albeit not yet completed, of TIM's New Equivalence Model (NME). AGCM's decision forces TIM to: (i) proceed with the implementation of the NME until its completion which is expected to be by 30 April 2017; (ii) to inform the Authority about the performance levels of the systems for providing wholesale access services and about the completion of the corresponding internal reorganisation plan by the end of May 2017. Both impositions were promptly fulfilled. Vodafone lodged an appeal with the Lazio Regional Administrative Court against the final decision in the proceedings for non-compliance taken by AGCM. TIM filed an appearance, as it did in the further proceedings brought in the month of March 2017 by the operators CloudItalia, Kpnqwest and Digitel.

Competition Authority case A514

In June 2017 the Italian Competition Authority (AGCM) started proceedings A514 against TIM, to ascertain a possible abuse of its dominant market position in breach of article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. The proceedings were started based on some complaints filed in May and June 2017, by Infratel, Enel, Open Fiber, Vodafone and Wind Tre, and concerns a presumed abuse of TIM's dominant position in the market for wholesale access services and for retail services using the broadband and ultrabroadband fixed network. In particular, the ICA hypothesised that TIM had adopted conduct aimed at: i) slowing and hindering the course of the Infratel tender processes so as to delay, or render less remunerative the entry of another operator in the wholesale market; ii) pre- emptively securing customers on the retail market for ultrabroadband services by means of commercial policies designed to restrict the space of customer contendibility remaining for the competitor operators. After the start of the proceedings, the Authority's officials carried out an inspection at some of TIM’s offices in the month of July 2017. The proceedings, within which the Company will be upholding all its arguments to support the correctness of its work, must be concluded by 31 October 2018.

For further details on the various proceedings before the regulatory authorities refer to the content of the “Main changes in the regulatory framework” chapter of the Interim Report on Operations as of 30 September 2017 of the TIM Group.

VODAFONE (I-761)

With a writ of summons before the Milan Court, Vodafone has sued TIM and some network companies, bringing claims for compensation from the Company for around 193 million euros for damages arising from alleged anti-competitive conduct censured in the known ICA case I-761 (on corrective maintenance) referring to the period from 2011 to 2017. Vodafone contests the alleged breach of the competition rules carried out by TIM, in the wholesale markets giving access to its fixed network (LLU lines; Bitstream; WLR), through the abuse of a dominant market position and an unlawful agreement with the maintenance companies to maintain the monopoly on the offer of corrective maintenance services on its network. In particular this restrictive agreement would have concerned the coordination, by the Company, of the financial conditions contained in the offers formulated by the aforementioned companies with respect to the OLOs, for the maintenance service, at artificially high prices with respect to the cost of the maintenance included in the regulated access subscription charge, in order to make it seem as if the unbundling of the service itself were not convenient. The Company filed an appearance, contesting all of the other party’s requests.

TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 11 at September 30, 2017 Contingent liabilities, other information 94

TELEUNIT

With a writ of summons before the Rome Court, Teleunit has claimed 35.4 million euros in compensation from TIM, based on the known decision of the Italian Competition Authority that settled the A428 case. Specifically, the other party complained that in the period 2009/2010 it had suffered abusive conduct on TIM's part in the form of technical boycotting (refusals to activate network access services - KOs), and anticompetitive practices in the form of margin squeezing (excessive squeezing of discount margins, considered abusive inasmuch as it cannot be replicated by competitors). Telecom Italia filed an appearance, contesting all of the plaintiff’s allegations. With a writ of summons issued in October 2009 before the Milan Appeal Court, Teleunit asked that TIM alleged acts of abuse of its dominant position in the premium services market be ascertained. The plaintiff quantified its damages at a total of approximately 362 million euros. TIM filed an appearance, contesting the claims of the other party. After the ruling of January 2014 with which the Court of Appeal declared that it was not competent in this matter and referred the case to the Court, Teleunit reinstated the case before the Milan Court the following April. TIM filed an appearance in the reinstated proceedings challenging the plaintiff’s claims. In its judgement of May 2017, the Milan Court rejected Teleunit's claim in its entirety, and ordered the company to pay the legal costs of the case. This judgement was appealed by Teleunit, in June 2017, before the Milan Court of Appeal. The Company will file an appeal challenging the arguments presented by the other party and asking that the judgement in the first instance be fully confirmed.

SKY

TIM has started civil proceedings against SKY Italia in the Milan Court, asking the court to void the contract signed by the two companies in April 2014 for the delivery and marketing, between 2015 and 2019, of the SKY IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) offer on the TIM IPTV platform, due to abuse of dominant position by the other party. As an alternative, the Company also asked the court to reduce to a fair level the amounts demanded by SKY by way of the so-called Guaranteed Minimums (“penalties”) established to SKY’s advantage and related to predetermined customer sign-up and churn-rate thresholds in the five years of the partnership. SKY filed an appearance in February 2017, challenging TIM’s claim and demanding payment of the Guaranteed Minimums it claimed to have accrued, a request which was opposed by the Company. The proceedings are ongoing: the next hearing is scheduled for the month of May 2018.

Investigation by the Monza Public Prosecutor’s Office

Criminal charges have recently been brought before the Monza Court regarding a number of transactions for the leasing and/or sale of assets. At the end of the preliminary hearing, the judge ordered a former employee of the Company to be committed for trial on charges of aggravated fraud and tax crimes, and, at the same time, declared that the statute of limitations applied to other charges; at the start of the trial, the Court declared that all the remaining offences were statute-barred. As part of these proceedings TIM, which had filed a formal complaint against persons unknown in 2011, joined the proceedings as a civil party as the person injured and damaged by the offence. Brazil - Opportunity Arbitration

In May 2012, TIM and Telecom Italia International N.V (now merged in Telecom Italia Finance) were served with a notice of arbitration proceedings brought by the Opportunity group, claiming compensation for damages allegedly suffered for presumed breach of a settlement agreement signed in 2005. Based on the claimant’s allegations, the damages relate to circumstances that emerged in the criminal proceedings pending before the Milan Court regarding, inter alia, unlawful activities engaged in by former employees of TIM.

The investigatory phase having been completed, the hearing for oral discussion took place in November 2014, after which the parties filed their concluding arguments in preparation for the decision on the case. In September 2015, the Board of Arbitration declared the proceedings closed, as the award was going to be filed. Subsequently, the Board of Arbitration allowed the parties to exchange short arguments and the ICC Court extended the term for the filing of the award. In September 2016 the ICC Court notified the parties of its judgement, based on which the Board of Arbitration rejected all the claims made by the Opportunity group and decided that the legal costs, administrative costs and costs for expert witnesses should be split between the parties. In April 2017 the Opportunity group filed an appeal against the arbitration award before the Court of Appeal of Paris.

Formal Notice of Assessments against TIM S.p.A.

On 29 October 2015 the Guardia di Finanza concluded a tax investigation into TIM S.p.A., started in 2013, regarding the years 2007 to 2014. The formal notice of assessment (Processo Verbale di Costatazione, or PVC) contained two substantial findings. The first relates to the presumed non-debiting of royalties to the company's indirect subsidiary Tim Brasil, for the use of the "TIM" brand. The second regards the alleged non-application of withholding tax on interest paid to subsidiary Telecom Italia Capital S.A. In this regard, on the basis of the aforementioned formal notice of assessment, the Milan Revenues Agency in December 2015 served assessment notices on the company for the 2010 tax year, and in December 2016 it served assessment notices for the tax years 2007 and 2011. While believing, on the basis of opinions issued by established professionals, that it has acted correctly in fulfilling all its tax obligations, the Company has attempted to come to an agreement with the Revenues Agency. Having failed to reach an agreement, as already occurred for the 2010 tax year, the Company has lodged an appeal with the Provincial Tax Commission against the verification notices relating to the 2007 and 2011 tax years too, in any event without excluding the possibility of coming to a judicial settlement with the Revenues Agency, with the object of closing the disputes in pre-litigation proceedings, for these and the other tax years.

B) OTHER INFORMATION

With reference to the cases listed below no significant facts have emerged with respect to that published in the 2016 Annual Report: • Dispute concerning the license fees for 1998; • Vodafone (previously TELETU),

Mobile telephony - criminal proceedings

In March 2012 TIM was served notice of the conclusion of the preliminary enquiries, which showed that the Company was being investigated by the Public Prosecutor of Milan pursuant to the Legislative Decree n. 231/2001, for the offences of handling stolen goods and counterfeiting committed, according to the alleged allegations, by fourteen employees of the so-called “ethnic channel”, with the participation of a number of dealers, for the purpose of obtaining undeserved commissions from TIM. The Company, as the injured party damaged by such conduct, had brought two legal actions in 2008 and 2009 and had proceeded to suspend the employees involved in the criminal proceedings (suspension later followed by dismissal). It has also filed an initial statement of defence, together with a technical report by its own expert, requesting that the proceedings against it be suspended, and that charges of aggravated fraud against the Company be brought against the other defendants. In December 2012, the Public Prosecutor's Office filed a request for 89 defendants and the Company itself to be committed for trial.

TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 11 at September 30, 2017 Contingent liabilities, other information 96

During the preliminary hearing, the Company was admitted as civil party to the trial and, in November 2013, the conclusions in the interest of the civil party were filed, reaffirming TIM's total lack of involvement in the offences claimed. At the end of the preliminary hearing, which took place in March 2014, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing committed for trial all the defendants (including TIM) who had not asked for their situation to be settled with alternative procedures, on the grounds that “examination in a trial” was needed. In April 2016, at the end of the first part of the trial, the Public Prosecutor asked for TIM to be sentenced to pay an administrative fine of 900 thousand euros, but decided not to ask for confiscation of any of the presumed profits of the offences (quantified in the committal proceedings as totalling several million euros), based on the assumption that TIM had in any event remedied the presumed organisational inadequacies. While acknowledging the considerable redimensioning of the accusations, the Company has reiterated its total non-involvement in the facts at issue. In November 2016 the Court gave a verdict acquitting the Company on the grounds that there was no case to answer. All the individuals charged were also acquitted on various grounds. The acquittal judgement is not final, as it was challenged in April 2017 by the Public Prosecutor who sought appeal before the Court of Cassation.

NOTE 13 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTION AND COORDINATION ACTIVITY

The following tables show the figures relating to related party transactions and the impact of those amounts on the separate consolidated income statements, consolidated statements of financial position and consolidated statements of cash flows.

Related party transactions, when not dictated by specific laws, were conducted at arm's length. The transactions were carried out in accordance with the internal procedure that contains the rules aimed at ensuring the transparency and fairness of related party transactions, in accordance with Consob Regulation 17221/2010.

On October 20, 2017, the Board of Directors of TIM examined and approved the binding term sheet by majority vote for the creation of a joint venture with Canal+. This transaction constitutes a related party transaction, because Canal+ International S.A.S. is a subsidiary of Vivendi S.A., already classed by Consob as the de facto Controlling Entity of TIM: this is a minor transaction in accordance with the parameters established by the relevant Consob Regulation. As such, it was submitted to the Control and Risk Committee for its recommendation, which voted in favor by majority, with motivated vote against by two board members. The Committee voted unanimously in favor, however, with regard to considering future transactions of the joint venture as transactions of TIM, for the application of the company procedure for performing transactions with related parties.

Lastly, you are reminded that: • up to May 4, 2017, the shareholders of the company Telco (the Generali, Intesa Sanpaolo, Mediobanca, and Telefonica groups), were also considered related parties of TIM, based on the provision of TIM's procedure for the management of transactions with related parties according to which it applies “also to the participants in significant shareholder agreements according to Article 122 of the Consolidated Law

Note 13 TIM Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Related party transactions and 101 at September 30, 2017 direction and coordination activity

on Finance, which govern the candidacy to the position of Director of the Company, where the majority of the Directors nominated have been drawn from the list submitted”. The members of the Board of Directors of TIM in office up to May 4, 2017 had in fact been drawn from the list originally submitted by the shareholder Telco. With the reappointment of the Board of Directors, this circumstance no longer applied and the scope of related parties through Directors was therefore amended; • the investment held in the Sofora – Telecom Argentina group, classified under Discontinued operations/Non-current assets held for sale starting from the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2013, was sold on March 8, 2016.

The effects on the individual line items of the separate consolidated income statements for the first nine months of 2017 and 2016 are as follows:
